Casilla hits Infante, Infante has broken hand – updated

With two outs in the ninth, Santiago Casilla took over for Jeremy Affeldt and he drilled Omar Infante in the back of the left hand.

Infante left to be tended to; you’d have to assume he will get X-rays. That didn’t look very good, and it’s highly possible if the Tigers win Game 4, they will be without their starting second baseman tomorrow.

UPDATE: The Tigers just announced that Infante has a fractured fifth metacarpal. He will not need surgery. He’d obviously be out the remainder of the series though the Tigers did not announce that.

Casilla got out of the inning by getting Gerald Laird to bounce into a force.

We go into extra innings tied 3-3 in Game 4 of the World Series. Danny Worth is now at second base for Detroit.
